He married Genie Burns then divorced her and married Faye Scraper who remained his spouse until his death. Posey "Pud"Scraper was Fayes brother. Olive Rhodes lived in the house next to my grandfather (Flavius Paris Rhodes). Flavius Paris Rhodes had two sons- Robert Rhodes who still lives in Otwell and Flavius Paris Rhodes III (who goes by Pete) who is my father and now lives in Cincinnati Ohio.

I believe this line to be very interesting. The Davis family had moved to Indiana early as pioneers. My Mason line has a large presence there. Both families have Union soldiers in them. Does anyone know how the split came about, and why these individuals choose to be Yankies instead of Confederates. It looks like the Mason's decided to split from Mother and Father that had been in Kentucky for many years. Moving across the Ohio River was a choice. William and Nancy are from a large family, that may have had a plantation in or near Sonora KY. There were Mason's running businesses in Sonora, and a son John E. that lived on his on large farm, or plantation. They may have remained nutral. The quilt and clock are an interesting connection to Jefferson Davis. I would love to know if this was a gift to a President or one for a married couple? Verina Davis was the daughter of another president: Zachory Taylor who was from KY.

Dear Alice-<br><br> Heber Miller is my great-grandfather. I read your post from the other site and I love genealogy. I thought you might be interested in seeing this article I found about Dr. J.C. Miller. I have included the link: <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=GeMDAAAAYAAJ&amp;pg=PA157&amp;lpg=PA157&amp;dq=dr.+j.c.miller+killed+in+1909&amp;source=bl&amp;ots=sZ0Ah2zaW8&amp;sig=I1IIy9A3x46QeVjFDttCc-I7Od8&amp;hl=en&amp;sa=X&amp;ei=Gz3BUYCnAuH4yAGNkIGwCg&amp;ved=0CCwQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&amp;q=dr.%20j.c.miller%20killed%20in%201909&amp;f=false" target="_blank">http://books.google.com/books?id=GeMDAAAAYAAJ&amp;pg=PA157&a...</a> It would not let me copy the article. It has a short bit about him being killed and it being surrounded in mystery. I found it in the Oklahoma Medical Assoc. Journal from 1909. I hope this helps you.

I am trying to track down my gr gr grandmother Mary Ann Fowler. She was born around 1834 in Indiana or Kentucky.
